I’m looking forward to voting FOR someone in November, finally.

Yes and blacks will fall in line, always do. No one is seriously worried about that. Joyner is already starting to get blacks in line to not only vote for Clinton on a ticket but to vote for her at the top of the ticket. He is starting to get you all in line on his blog and his show. Roland will get in the game eventually too. They will fall in line and get the rest of you to fall in line. All of the bluster doesn’t mean anything when we know you will always fall in line, you always have and you always will. Thanks!

Speak for yourself. As I have mentioned in previous posts, I am an Independent that hasn’t voted for a Democratic candidate for president since 1988. If Obama is left off the ticket becuase of shenanigans, the streak will then continue. Can’t put it any simpler than that.

EXACTLY!

Right there. Just exactly.

Thank you.

I made up my mind to do that a long time ago!!

Against Race Politics

Today progressive’s may have found a voice inside the democratic party, but when the party know longer reflects the views of those who call themselve’s progressive’s…or excepts the will of those it represents then it’s time to change party affilliation.

I posted on this today too: http://www.glamour.com/news/blogs/glamocracy/2008/05/why-cant-hillar.html

I agree. And it’s why I stopped registering as a Dem. I got fed up with a party that needed Black folks for our vote, but didn’t need us for our leadership.

And when someone like Barack comes along; and the party “leaders” screw him over in favor of placating a few ignorant white voters and white media; then I can vote against that party with a clear conscience.

Now, I believe that Barack is poised to win this thing. At the same time, I and millions of other Black voters are serving notice that we will not be accepting any — ANY — rationales, excuses or reasons for stealing the nomination.

SO TO HELL WITH THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY!

-John Edwards, where are you?

“The thing is, Obama’s WHITE supporters? There is no conflict for them. NONE. It’s not even in their minds to pull the lever for her.”

Yep. I’m not doing it. I’m not a Democrat, so these people who would unite around a jello mold if it had a “D” after its name hold no sway with me.

“a young(er) man in New York–I think Powell is his name–is going to be challenging Charlie Rangel, I think.”

Yea, its Kevin Powell who is actually running for a seat in Brooklyn. Ed Towns’s seat (a Clinton Supporter).

I have been mulling this as the months go on and even up to a few weeks ago I wasn’t able to bring myself to the ultimate “hell no” decision. I kept thinking on the whole Supreme Court and no McCain arguments and putting off my growing fury and disgust.
I’ve said in the past how the Dems only wake up and actively courts its minority base at election time and the rest it’s all “who? oh yes, wait in line” but these past weeks have finally tipped the scales for me.
I’m not sitting out the general, no. My vote will be counted. What I will do, if it comes to that, is write in Obama. Having served as Minority Captain at my precinct I know all too well that even if your dumbass writes in “Yosemite Sam” we have to write it down and count and record it.
If she steals this nomination, I want the Machine to count and record every vote lost by her her and not get to wave it off or just speculate that we wouldn’t have voted anyway. Hell no. I want a record of just how many of us would have voted for him.

So that’s my plan, I hope that I don’t have to do it but if I do, I hope I’m far from alone.

You know I love you. You know my stance on this. Black folk on the ground are WAYYY out of in front of this issue and the so-called elite just better jump on board or get run over.

The thing is, Obama’s WHITE supporters? There is no conflict for them. NONE. It’s not even in their minds to pull the lever for her.

Black folk better wake up.

Both posts appear to be Clintonian support cleverly disguised as objective questions.

Barack isn’t making a “comeback” because there’s nothing or no where to come “back” from.

As far as super delegates not “uniting” behind him … again, more spin for the uninitiated. The reality is that super delegates are leaving Clinton and joining in favor of Obama. See Letter from Joe Andrew

Finally, these white voters who supposedly can’t be “won” by Barack, don’t matter. Yes. I said it. These “under-no-circumstance” white bigots don’t deserve to be appealed to; they don’t deserved to be reached out to; they don’t deserve to be woo’ed. They only deserve the sorry, bitter and unfulfilled lives that they’ve made for themselves. They aren’t worth the trouble.
